Panasonic DVD-S97S Single Disc DVD Player
Manufacturer's Description
One Cable Carries High-Quality Digital Audio and Video
If you have even a moderately complicated home theater setup, you probably have a pile of tangled cables on the floor behind it. Imagine replacing all those cables with a single cable that carries both digital video and audio at the same time. With the new HDMI standard, that's exactly what you get. HDMI carries high-quality digital video and audio over the same thin cable, allowing you to run one cable from your DVD player to an HDMI-compatible TV or home theater receiver.
Film-Like Image Quality
The goal of any playback device should be accurate reproduction of the original content. In the case of DVDs, most of that content is film-based. Utilizing advanced progressive scan1 playback techniques and very accurate MPEG video decoders, this DVD player provides an image that faithfully represents the image you see at your favorite movie theater.
Play Many Popular Music Formats
Most people think of their DVD player simply as a movie machine. This DVD player not only plays prerecorded DVDs and DVD-R2/DVD-RAM discs, but also MP3s3, CDs, CD-R/RW4 discs, WMA5, and DVD-Audio discs.
Pick Up Where You Left Off
Let's say you're enjoying the latest Hollywood blockbuster, and one of your kids needs to watch his favorite animated character perform his antics—right now. With our position memory feature, you can mark the exact point on the DVD where you stopped it. Even after removing the disc and playing another, you can put the original disc back in the player and pick up right where you left off. This DVD player can memorize positions on up to 5 DVDs, so even if it's a kiddie movie marathon, you're covered.
Digital Recordings Sound Like the Original Performance
When compressed digital audio such as MP3s and movie soundtracks is created, higher frequencies are lost due to limited frequency response. Most of these frequencies can't be heard by human ears, but their presence conveys subtle nuances. When they're missing in a digital recording, it doesn't quite sound the same as the live performance. Our multi re-master feature examines the audio signal and helps compensate for these lost frequencies, providing sound quality closer to the original performance.
